Sirius is a single star, in the constellation Canis Major, just east of Orion.

It's visible at some time of night during roughly 9 months of the year. The

best time of year to see it depends entirely on what time of night you like to

go outside and look. If you're like most people, and do your gazing between

dinnner and bed-time, then Winter and early Spring are the best seasons.

Why is Ethan Fromes consideration of the star Sirius ironic to his circumstances?

I'm not familiar with the book, nor the time frame. However, judging by the location and the time of year (Snow on the ground), it seems unlikely Sirius would have been visible at that (Starkfield, MA) location. However, if there had been a late snow fall after mid march it is quite possible Sirius could have been visible on the horizon.
